Have skimmed Riftworld rules, and I am slightly more eager to play now.  It looks like a lot of fun, the background is nicely detailed - though I am a little put off by the fact that slightly over a quarter of the pagecount is devoted to combat rules.

I am entertained by the notion of playing somebody with nothing but Teleport 2 and a shedload of Psi points (if I have done the maths correctly, 20 - 6 (Psi 2) - 2 (Teleport 1) - 2 (Teleport 2) = 10 CP = 40 Psi points (= 8 long-range teleports).  Obviously this leaves me with no equipment or defence of any kind, but it would be funny.

The other notion rattling around my head is a Citier, as it gives me an excuse to buy lots of Cybergoth things.  See, I have one Skills concept, and one Cultures.  I am well-rounded.  If only they were not mutually incompatible!

Had a look through. The background doesn't excite me at all.

I have played and enjoyed Riftworld, but its not a game that excites me as much as some.
I'd recommend giving it a go.
Having said that, various reasons have stopped me attending the next game, so I won't be there.

Though it you want to play something totally unfeasable, ask!
you will get unpleasant plot coming out of your ears, but they might say yes..
